Lyrical Ballads: With a Few Other Poems by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Wordsworth

4.0

It’s challenging to rate a book of poems as a whole. As (in my opinion) some of these poems deserved five big fat stars, while others deserved maybe two. Overall it was wonderful to get aquatinted with “The Lake Poets” through this collection though.

My favorite were these lines from Wordsworth:

“Then come, my sister! come, I pray,
With speed put on your woodland dress,
And bring no book; for this one day
We’ll give to idleness.”

If you love nature and words and are a romantic type too, I highly recommend this book.
